Look on the front page the post i wrote about steam... it says they r working on it... i had it too, but worked for me after they fixed it.. u should all ve fine by now...KP

I think this might be either because of the update, the maintanence, all the STEAM file server thingies aren't up yet or a mix of all of them. Maybe someone knows of anything that can fix this if it's just me? I've tried re-signing in, checking the registry and restarting my computer a few times, but nothings worked. We all get the same Errors when trying to connect to any server... i think it is still because of the steam update... I get it, Catdady gets it and Never surrender gets it.... and i think a couple of ppl too, cause nobody is on the server try it again later (2hrs) or check the Steamsite or our Frontpage for new...

Steam Skinning : change the Buttonpositon? Since [TA]-Psy4 asked some days ago for some Steam Skins,i did some research and finally here is the HOW TO... a pack of 17 Steam Skins are available at the downloads section, too...+a skin i made.For ppl who want to configure their own skins... proceed and have fun by [TA] - Kingpin First of all, copy the "grey"-folder, w is located in the Steam/skins directory and rename the copied file to whatever u want (in my example i renamed it to FA-TheArmory --> surprise lol). I called mine for better understanding FA-TheArmory: http://kingpin.fa-thearmory.net/Pics/bild1.jpg Inside the steam\skins\FA-TheArmory folder there should be the following sub-folders and files: FA-TheArmory\resource FA-TheArmory\servers FA-TheArmory\steam sowie http://kingpin.fa-thearmory.net/Pics/bild2.jpg If u can´t find those files inside the "resource"-folder should repeat the steps 1+2 from this tutorial...otherwise preceed hehe Now, edit a new folder inside the Fa-TheArmory\steam and name it "cached". Now copy xyz:\Steam\steam\cached\SteamRootDialog.res into the newly made "cached" folder http://kingpin.fa-thearmory.net/Pics/bild3.jpg Well, finally we can now start doing serious stuff ( :-D). First, start Steam, choose at Settings-Skins your "FA-TheArmory Skin. CLose and Exit Steam and start it again. Press Strg+Alt+Shift+B Following Menu should pop up on the screen (since it is your Skin, it should look a little different hehe) http://kingpin.fa-thearmory.net/Pics/bild4.jpg With pressing the dedicated button (Button of your choice --> for example: Games, Settings etc.) you can move it. Remember the button name u just altered, e.g. Button1, and the coordinates, where the button should take place. (e.g. xpos 8, ypos 30) Open file SteamRootDialog.res with the texteditor and look for the according value, for the prior mentioned case it would look like: "Button1" <- Name des Buttons { "ControlName" "Button" "fieldName" "Button1" "xpos" "8" <- position relative to x-axis "ypos" "30" <- position relative to y-axis "wide" "80" <- width of the Button "tall" "24" <- height of the Button "autoResize" "0" "pinCorner" "0" "visible" "1" <- Button visible (yes=1/no=0) "enabled" "1" "tabPosition" "2" "labelText" "Games" <- Label on the button "textAlignment" "west" <- positioning the text on the button (for exampl. west=left) "dulltext" "0" "brighttext" "0" "Command" "Open:Games" "Default" "0" } Unfortunatly the "save" function does NOT work in the Steameditor, so u have to configure and position the buttons through hard handwork (haha). So keep the values for the moved buttons in mind and write the new values in the "SteamRootDialog.res" at the proper position. Restart Steam, the only way to activate any changes u made. The Changeof the Backround Picture: Open the file FA-TheArmory\resource\valve_logo.tga with a graphics tool (photoshop or else) and customize it... Unfrotunatly, the picture that is coming out at the end, is bigger than the one before (or smaller, doesn´t matter, u have to work on the settings then) you have to change the settings in the "SteamRootDialog.res" file. Here the example for u: "ValveLogo" { "ControlName" "ImagePanel" "fieldName" "ValveLogo" "xpos" "2" "ypos" "30" "wide" "200" <- pic is 200px wide "tall" "400" <- pic is 400px heigh "autoResize" "0" "pinCorner" "0" "visible" "1" "enabled" "1" "tabPosition" "0" "image" "resource/valve_logo" "scaleImage" "0" } To change the size of the Steam-window, u only have to change the according wide/tall-values in the "SteamRootDialog". Save, and VOILA.. done ... enjoy your own, handmade "Picasso" or the thing kids do at school at science class ... Have fun... AHHHH, before i forget, to change the color values of the steams windows, i added a Steam customizer in the download section.... Download, unzip, change steamcolor...easy as it is... http://www.fa-thearmory.net/modules.php?op=modload&name=Downloads&file=index&req=viewdownload&cid=12 [TA]-Kingpin

to be on the safe site, i would download the 700 MB file... u have everything for use then.... but thats up to u KP

ok, if u download there r several possibilities... the full Halflife cache (about 700 MB) the Opposing Force Cache (about 200+MB) the Richochet Cache (about 200+MB) the DMC Cache (about 200+MB) and the Halflife Cache (about 200+MB) if u want to do it 100% save, download the FULL HALFLIFE CACHE and follow the install instructions u can find here: http://www.fa-thearmory.net/steam.htm, or download only the Halflife Cache (about 200+ MBs not 700+) and install it... thats what i meant the "Big" and the "small" file tell your girlfriend NOT to touch those downloading windows... well, keep her busy while downloading... :roll: go to the movies...just don´t let her touch the download windows lol KP

i think i will come up with a Steam skinning tutorial in the next few days... if i have time to ... lolof course ONLY in case ppl ask here to do so, cause i wont do the work for myself...i already know lol If u guys want one, tell me... i will set one up...KP
